Description

Last week, over 20,000 pages of the late Jeffrey Epstein’s emails, texts and other documents were released. In one email, Epstein – the deceased child sex trafficker with ties to U.S. President Donald Trump – writes that Trump “knew about the girls.” It has intensified the public outcry for the U.S. government to release all of its investigative files on Epstein. And on Tuesday, the U.S. Congress voted to make all of its information public.

Today, the Globe’s international correspondent, Nathan VanderKlippe joins the show. He’s been following the rift the Epstein scandal has caused within Trump’s MAGA base, the President’s evolving response, and what the released emails tell us about the Canadians connected to Epstein.
